# Fixes JSONMatch issue in `insert` patches

**Version:** v2023-03-07

**Published:** November 12, 2026

Fixes a bug that caused `insert` patches with an `after` property where the JSONMatch expression provided matched multiple disjoint array elements (such as `array[1, 3]` or `array[@ < 2]`. 

Previously this lead to appending new items into the *first* region’s slot while pulling content from the *last* match, which dropped the first match and duplicated the last.

The patch now correctly inserts items so inserts land immediately after the *last* matched element.

This change affects all API versions - including `v1` and all date-formatted versions
